Roku releases Android App

The remote control app for Roku has been released for Android devices. A similar app was released for iOS users last year, and now Android users can join the fun. With the app, Roku users can control their Roku box with their phone instead of the remote control that ships with the Roku.

The Roku app allows users to browse and launch Roku channels, manage the player, and control playback and instant replay. You can also find new channels and apps in the Roku Store. In order to use the app your phone will need to be connected to your network via WiFi.
